The Orange County Register reported on Wednesday:
Officer Michael Crain loved being a policeman and was proud to serve his country -- but nothing in his life was more important than his family.
That was the message Wednesday as law enforcement officials from San Francisco to Indio joined family and friends in mourning the death of the 34-year-old Riverside Police Department officer who authorities believe was killed in an ambush by ex-Los Angeles Officer Christopher Dorner.
